A remarkable story in the quarterly magazine “Tilburg Magazine”: in an interview with Nelly Van Gelooven, she speaks about her secret admirer, Elvis Presley. Nelly and Elvis met in 1956 on the train between Rotterdam and Tilburg, when GI Elvis travelled incognito. Elvis fell for the Dutch lady, and played “Can’t Help Falling In Love” for her on his guitar. Still according to Nelly Van Gelooven, Elvis sent her 3 letters, but the address was unreadable and thus, they ‘returned to Sender’. When Elvis passed away, the three letters were found in his bedroom…

The story, according to the editor, is supposed to be true (although we're sure that not a word is true). It will also be published on a history book on Tilburg, set for release in 2008. (Special thanks to Edwin Karel for the tip)
